"Pro-Crime" Not a Proud Label

Writing for The Washington Post, Ed Rogers observes FBI Director James Comey has gone off-message. Comey observed that police are intimidated by the Black Lives Matter movement, and thus are ignoring criminal behavior they should stop. Rogers writes:
If the Democrats had their way, there would be less police activity, fewer criminals in prison, more criminals on the street and fewer law-abiding Americans with guns. It’s hard to argue anything else.

The politics of this issue are not fully formed, but if the Democrats don’t watch it, they run the risk of being the “pro-crime” party in the United States.
